Uh yes... There are instances (mine included) that'll automatically defederate you if you have too many users with too few interactions, so better enable captcha if you're worried about bots.
Great! Thank you!
Thank you very much for the info! Maybe I'll give it a shot again.
I'd also suggest Immich, but with a warning. On their GitHub page, they state:
Did anyone actually use this over a longer period of time, including updates, etc.? How did it work for you?
Meine Güte, warum muss ich über sowas lachen?
Thank you very much for all your suggestions. In fact, I even plan to do my first seitan batch today. I'll follow this video and see how it goes.
I'll save all your guys suggestions and try them out, thanks again!
Hmm. I make the decision myself, nobody is forcing me. I have moral concerns, I care about the environment and I also have health concerns, too.
I'm not sure if I'll ever be vegetarian or vegan (I'd like to). For now, my goal is to reduce meat intake to one or maybe two times a week.
That's what I'm doing. I like to eat "traditional" salads and stuff like that, but I grew up with them being side dishes most of the time and I think, it's hard to break habits.
From a moral standpoint, I'd like to go vegetarian or even vegan at some point, but this requires me to find things that I'll actually like to eat on a regular basis. Often times, when I search for vegan recipes, something often throws me off. Be it the flavor, the texture, the strength of the flavor or lack thereof, etc. Maybe it's just that I'm not used to it or that animal fats are carrying so much flavor that I'm now kinda addicted to it? I know, it sounds really stupid, but when I go to the grocery store, I often gravitate towards animal products automatically.
My first goal will be to reduce meat intake to one, maybe two times a week.
If you're talking about me here, I understood why you were suggesting it. But to me, that's not the problem of c/politics in this case. They wouldn't want to rename, if it was possible, because "AmErIcA fIrSt".
I also know how to use keywords, etc. And maybe I went a bit overboard when I said Brave Search sucks. It doesn't suck, but with Kagi, I don't feel like a product any more and the search results make sense again, like with Google a couple years ago. Most free search engines just don't work that good any more.
If you would've told me 2 years ago that I'll be paying for a search engine in the future... Well, I would've thought that you're crazy. But here I am now.
Explanation: Germans ~~used to~~ (apparently only in my bubble) call cellphones "Handy" and many people still do that. My friends from america found that quite hilarious.
Hello everyone and a
It's great to see that this community and this instance see some actual usage! That makes me happy. 😁
Thank you for all the really nice, civil and constructive conversations we had on here so far and let's hope that our community will continue to grow steadily!
We'll soon push Lemmy in the Automoderator messages, the banner and the description on Reddit, so we'll be able to lure more people here, hopefully. If you want to help, just spread the word!
Once again, thank you, thank you, thank you and have a great one!
Edit: Yes, I'm aware I just violated my own "no memes" rule. 🤣

Hey, guys.
Pre-workday-Netto chiming in to inform you that a XSS vulnerability has been found in Lemmy's frontend and that several instances have been compromised.
You can track the issue here.
I implemented the supposed patch and uploaded an ARM64 build that has the patch applied to Docker Hub, if any other instance might need it (use with caution).
Please note that you'll have to log back in, as all active sessions have been terminated.
I'll continue to monitor the situation when I'm at work.
✌️
Hello, everyone!
My wife @Alirrasona told me earlier that she isn't fond of Lemmy's default web interface.
As many of you know, there are numerous alternative frontends for Lemmy. There are apps for Android and iOS, but also web frontends that you can access through your browser.
Two of them are pretty solid in my opinion. They're called Mlmym and Wefwef. Yes, the names are pretty weird, but they fundamentally change the way you can browse through Lemmy content.
Wefwef resembles an iOS application that works similar to how Apollo for Reddit used to work. You just visit the web page on your device, log in (if you want) and there you go. You can even "install" it as a progressive web application (PWA) and it'll appear in your launcher, start menu or wherever, acting as a native application.

Mlmym is a pretty good clone of the classic Reddit layout, also known as Old Reddit. So, for the folks out there who prefer that, Mlmym has got you covered.

Why not? Choice is good. And in the fediverse, spreading load is necessary.
If you like the software, please consider donating to the developers. Wefwef has a sponsor link on the GitHub Page!

Hello, community.
After my faux pas earlier today I now have some good news for you: I just upgraded the server to Lemmy 0.18.1, which brings mostly stability, performance and security improvements.
You can see a list with the changes here.
I recently followed the changes to Lemmy very closely and pretty much immediately pulled the latest changes when I saw something that I deemed necessary, which means, we were already pretty close to 0.18.1 release anyway.
Some tech-y Stuff
For anyone who might need it, I provide ARM64 builds of Lemmy and Lemmy-UI on my Docker Hub Repo, since Lemmy doesn't provide them officially right now. You can find them here.
As usual, let me know if something doesn't work, etc.
Much love from Germany!

Hello, everyone!
Due to me fiddling around with Cloudflare and accidently applying wrong settings during one of my sleepless nights (I was tired again 😅), we weren't reachable for most people for a couple hours.
Since it was a DNS settings problem, it took some time to propagate and therefore it took some time for me to notice. I took my changes back for now and now it'll take some time for that to propagate, as well.
I'm really sorry, ~~it'll not happen again~~ it might happen again, but I'll do my best to prevent things like that in the future. I just want a stable experience for everyone!
Edit: Nitter's back!
Hey, community.
As some of you probably know, FOSSware has instances for the popular, privacy-respecting front-ends for Reddit, Twitter and YouTube, called Teddit, Nitter and Piped.
Teddit and Piped don't use any kind of official API to get the content off the respective websites, so they continue to work, even after Reddit's API restrictions that went in place today. It's a different story with Twitter. Interested folks may track the GitHub issue here.
This shows once again that the decentralized approach is the better one. Let's take the matter into our own hands and use Lemmy, KBin, Mastodon, Pleroma, Pixelfed, Peertube, Calckey, etc.
The future is now, old man.
✌️
Just some cutsies enjoying the weather.
Edit: Updated lemmy to 0.18.1.rc.10 and lemmy-ui to 0.18.1.rc.11. ARM64 images on Docker Hub.
Hello, guys.
As you might've noticed by the downtime, I decided to upgrade the server today, because I pretty much failed yesterday, due to migraine.
👍 Good news: The server is now running the latest version of Lemmy, 0.18.0.
👎 Bad news: There are still some issues that may or may not affect usability. But so far, things seem to be pretty minor.
⚠️ In case you encounter more issues, please let me know by commenting underneath this post or by posting in /c/fossware_support.
✌️
Updated lemmy to 0.18.1.rc.10 and lemmy-ui to 0.18.1.rc.11. ARM64 images on Docker Hub.
I made an announcement post for my community here and it has a GitHub link. I think, the repository has a python script that'll do it.
